RYe for Pasture.

We would remind our readers again
OF the wisdom of securing as much
stock food for the winter as possible.
Few ever make the mistake OF provid-
ing more than they can dispose of to
advantage in some way, while thous-
ands are always short Of hay or grain
long before grass comes again, no mat
ter how abundant and cheap crops are
in the fall.
While our farmers have been blessed
with crops, and have raised more than
enough to carry their stock through the
winter in good shape, if all is properly
saved, there will be a demand for al
the hay, fodder and grain grown III the
State, and all that has been produced
should be saved.
Besides saving all that has been
praised, any other means to help out the
supply should be taken advantage of.
One of the best is to SOW rye for fall,

Unjust Freight Rates.

We desire here to call the attel ton
of the Santa Fe officials to what seems
to us to be an unjust discrimination
against this section of the State i'll the
matter of freight rates against corn.
To illustrate. we Will take the rates
between Kansas City, Sterling, Kinsley
and Dodge City. The rate between
Kansas City and Kin nsley. distance of
331 miles, is Is cents per hundred
pounds. and between Sterling and
kinsley, distance OF only 79 miles,
the rate is y cents, difference of
cents per hundred; between Kansas
City and Dodge City. distance of 367
miles. the rate is 19 cents. while be-
tween Sterling and Dodge City, dis
tance of 1l5 (leSS than One-third the
distance between Kansas City and
Dodge, the rate is 10 cents, or only
cents less than between the latter
points, and the same as between Kan
sas City and Kinsley, of twice the dis
tance. y fair adjustment of rates be-
tween Sterling and KinSley or Dodge
City, proportiOned to the rate between
Kansas City and those places. would

A True Saying.

The saying that ''there is no loss
without some small GAIN is again veri-
fed in Kansas, as usual. Following
close upon the heels of hot, drouthy
summer, with only an average crop Of
anything, we have just had good, soak
ing rains, accompanied with cool, dark
weather, which has placed the ground
in better condition for fall plowing and
seeding than it has been at any time
since the fall of "A. Not only has the
soil been thoroughly moist, but the
cool weather has effectually put a qui-
etus upon the chinch-bug crop. killing
them outright, and if we were a
farmer, we would prepare for large
crop of wheat the coming year. While
it is true that our farmers have had
cause to be a little discouraged, yet
they have much to be thankful for.
Crops are not near so poor as at first
supposed. and the prospects for next
year are very flattering Demo

KANSAS CROPS.
cmcial Report of the State Board OF Agri-
culture For August

OnciaI Report of the state Board OF Agri-
culture For August
TOPEKA, Kan, Sept. 11.-William Sim
secretary OF the State Board Of Agricult-
ure, has made the following official state
ment Of the condition of crops in Kansas
for the month ended August 81:
Wheat, winter and spring-We note no
changes since the date OF our last report,
one month ago. The probable product is
1,I4O, ,3I5 bushels, which, with the old wheat
on hand, will about meet the requirements
OF the State for seed and bread.
Corn-In view Of thevery general demand
for definite information relating to this crop
the board has for the purposes of this re-
port extended its inquiries much beyond its
list OF regular correspondents, and after a
careful compilation and thorough analysis
OF the information received from all sources
find the area planted to be ESQ, 406
acres, or eleven per cent in excess OF
any former year. OF this 2,52O, 1872 acres
or forty per cent while valuable for fodder
will not be worth husking, leaving 1000,
O46 acres from which product may be ex-
pected- This acreage, we estimate, will
yield s., 557, ,25S bushels or forty-nine per
cent. Of the average annual product for
hve years, which, together with the old
corn now on hand (Which we estimate at
IL, OO0, 600 bushels), will, we think, when
properly distributed, about meet the re-
QulrementS OF the State. The counties OF
Allen, Anderson, Bourbon, Brown, Butler,
Chautauqua, Cherokee, Cowley, Crawford,
Doniphan, Elk, Greenwood, Kingman, La
bette. Linn, Montgomery, Neosho, Nemaha,
Repu bic, Sedgwick, Wilson and Woodson
-22-win have surplus. The counties of
Atchison, Chase, Coffey, Harper, Harvey,
Jackson, Jefferson, Jewell, Johnson, Lin
coin, Marion, Marshall, Mcpherson, Miami,
Norton, Phillips, Pottawatomie, Pratt,
Rawlins, Reno, Rice, Smith, Stafford and
Washington-2+Will have enough 10 meet
local requirements, while the remaining
counties, with possibly a few exceptions,
will to greater or less extent be purchas-
ers Of this cereal
Oats-The area seeded to this crop Is
found to be much in excess Of any former
year, and while the yield per acre viii fall
considerably below the average, the gross
product will not be less than 100000
bushels, or about 1. .0O0, 600 bushels in excess
Of the crop Of 1886, which was the largest
heretofore reported.
Potatoes-The season has been unfayora-
bic Tor the crop and light yield may be ex-
pected.
Broom Corn-Area planted, 1923 acres;
estimated product, 2S 129. 200 pounds Of
brush. against IS. 630, 500 last year.
Flax-Acreage largely IN excess Of last
year; probable product, 100000 bushels, or
about the same as for 1886
MiIlet and Hungarian grass Acreage
about the same as last year and VIII FUR
nish about L 10000 tons Of good feed
grasses. The yield per acre has been light,
but an abundance of hay has and VIII be Sc
cured. Pastures are now generally good
throughout the Stale and live stock Is in
dne condition.
